Toying around with police services to save a couple of bucks is a risky gamble. It doesn't matter which PD is patrolling the Town of Ossining (or anywhere, for that matter), when something happens there is going to be those criticizing the agency and crying for it to change.
...And saving money on one thing only translates into pissing it away somewhere else...
Good luck to OPD, and thanks to the WCPD for their services the past few years.

Some enforcement of the 50 PSI and Fog Stream only rules that appear on most flyers could eliminate such problems. It is when people stop being responsible that bad things happen which give such events the bad rep that they have.
It's unfortunate that some people think such events are a waste of time, etc., and they are certainly entitled to their opinions. But, the "all work, no play" mentality is not good for morale or retaining members, either. Gotta have a little fun and be sociable once in a while, just do it safely.

Ok, feel free to tell me I'm off base with what I'm going to say. First of all I get the tradition, never actually seen this, but I get it. It's just that a week ago a firefighter DIED of his injuries after the tower ladder he was in CAME CLOSE to a high voltage power line. The ladder was being used at an ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. There are primaries right above the wet down and they are hit from a short distance with 1,500 GPM on straight stream. The wires are dancing overhead and yet several children are playing directly underneath, and no one seems to care. How much does it take for one wire to come off an insulator?
Make no mistake, A/C power will reach out and get you. You don't have to wrap two hands around it. Again, I'm not being critical of the tradition, I just really have issue with the lack of common sense, especially when it comes to children.

Unless those paramedics would take over policing in the unincorporated portion of the Town of Ossining I don't see the point.

In a disaster, how many businesses will even be open?

They did a nice job with these cars. The first car with their new lettering scheme was the Expedition (Car 37). Now these two, Car 37 and the Park Ranger Car (134) have the new graphics.
If you were in the same spot on Thursday, you could have seen them locking someone up for suspected DWI/DUI/DWAI.... (not me, LOL).

You did. And this price seems to be the norm now for Rescue-Pumpers. Just imagine if it was on a Seagrave or Pierce chassis, I would wager to bet it would be closer to $800,000.
Good luck AFD.

Armonk FD reliably has drivers, so the EMT will not be waiting for other personnel. The fire district chose WEMS due to the existing relationship with the medics. An RFP for 2015 will be forthcoming, the current contract is short term. This is a step in the right direction for providing consistent EMS to the district residents.

Actually, they don't have to carry band-aids. It's not part 800.

LOL at Res24cue. You keep proving me wrong that people can't be any dumber.
Law Enforcement Officers are the only thing that keeps order and prevents chaos in our country, regardless of what politicians, media and other groups try to feed us. The most important thing for all of us to do is to avoid sipping the Kool Aid that is fed to us making us think that LEOs are the enemy.
The enemy is ourselves and our thought process that we can be and are above the law. If we eliminate the laws that govern us and protect us, I will gladly pick up my family and move somewhere that has them, enforces them and protects my family.
I hate how our country is going down the toilet, and how so many people try to justify their illegal actions.

Best it ever looked !

Because there is an anti-cop sentiment that is growing thanks to the left wing media...

Well, I relistened and all I hear is the recorder say "I can record" and the Trooper appears to say "You can" or possibly "Yes, you can." The Trooper doesn't appear to say anything directing him not to record, nor does he even engage him in any conversation, so.... There is no indication the Trooper said or took any action precluding recording. The Trooper is even walking away from the guy recording as he passes him.
I'm not sure why some people go out of their way to assume the cops are wrong, when there is no evidence to substantiate that, and even in this case evidence to the contrary.
Unreal.

Me thinks you watched too many episodes of the Andy Griffith show on TV. Mayberry only exists on TV in the 60s..Everyone encountered by the police reacts differently. However, you pick up on one thing that is correct; The perp does have a lot of control over what happens to him. If he submits than there should be no further use of force. If he fights then the police have an absolute right to defend themselves. What happened before the video starts is irrelevant with one exception: the subject was going to be arrested. Once the subject started to resist, the use of force by the troopers went up as the resistance on the part of the subject increased. But the amount of forced used increased only to the extent needed to overcome the amount of resistance on the part of the subject. Further, the video shows that the use of force stopped when the suspect stopped using force on the troopers. If you consider these officers to be Super Troopers jacked-up on Mountain Dew then it appears that you may have spent too long in Colorado.

Rob,
I don't think he kicked him in the head. I watched it a few times and it appears they kicked the mutt's hat away.
